Stellar Repair for Photo is a desktop application for repairing corrupt or damaged JPEG/JPG and other photo files on Windows and macOS. It repairs files locally and can process multiple photos in one operation. The Windows format list includes JPEG, RAW, TIFF, HEIC, MxPEG, and numerous camera formats. For severely corrupt JPEG files, Advanced Repair uses a sample JPEG from the same camera as the damaged file. The free evaluation download lets users preview repaired photos, but registration is required to save them. The product FAQ describes the software as read-only, so it does not edit or modify JPEG files. It also states that the Windows software cannot repair compressed JPEG files and may fail if a JPEG marker is missing. Listed plans are Standard at $39.99 a year, Professional at $59.99 a year, and Premium at $69.99 a year. The listed license is for a single system, and the FAQ states that purchases have a 30-day money-back guarantee.
